The room, good location in Harlem (which is one of my favorite NY neighborhoods) all great, and Dennis the owner a great person, helps you in everything you need as part of the documentation you already have prepared they arrive;) Do not forget to sign on the wall;) Great !!!!

In early July I was with my husband and my 15 year old son a guest at Dennis, and we had a wonderful time.
Dennis is the perfect host ... communicative, helpful, reliable! Already the reception when we arrived was absolutely sincere, because he seemed to have been waiting for us, and before we could press the door bell, the door opened and our host brought his joy at our arrival to express. He took a lot of time for us and showed us everything we needed to know. Also during our stay he helped us with advice and assistance to side. The apartment is beautiful, located in a town house lovingly preserved and restored 19th century, equipped with modern and sophisticated technology. Next to the bed on the table were, much to my delight, fresh flowers. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need and very clean and well stocked. For location of the house was told that she would not be better. Harlem is an absolutely casual place with very friendly people and great infrastructure. The café bar around the corner, we have gorgeous breakfast ... there are the tastiest croissants in the world;) Also, the Harlem shake with the best burgers far and wide and a large supermarket are very close. The metro station is just a few minutes. Our stay in New York was also thanks to Dennis, a great success, because we could almost feel at home.

We had a great stay in NY, the studio of Dennis is ideally located to retreat in the evening in a somewhat quieter area NewYorks. The studio is clean and well furnished, the window shows the backyard and thus the room is very quiet. Dennis is an uncomplicated landlord who if necessary, is like, with words and deeds aside. It is worthwhile to give Harlem time restaurants and the atmosphere are unique. Breakfast in Cafe Latte is highly recommended and dinner at Red Rooster was a direct hit.
We are happy to return.

The best apartment I have never seen. And Dennis is a great and caring host. I experienced Harlem for the first time and it is something special: the atmosphere, the people and the places around. What are you waiting for? Do not even think: book it if it is available!!!

First of all a HUGE big thank you to our landlord Dennis.
He really is a very nice and helpful person and has provided us with a super great apartment.

We were able to spend in this unique town 8 days with our son (7 years old) and have us safely thanks to our perfect accommodation felt very comfortable.
The rented apartment is located in an older home, has been carefully renovated and furnished with great attention to detail.
It's all absolutely identical to the pictures shown on Wimdu. In my view, it is even greater than it appears in the photos, in fact.
The equipment of this apartment is perfect to feel like a real "New Yorker". The kitchen is equipped with everything you need in everyday life, from breakfast to dinner, everything can be prepared.
In the bathroom, plenty of bath towels, shampoo, shower gel, etc. are available. The wireless works flawlessly.
The bed is very convenient to be able to walk relax nice after a long day of sightseeing can. The sofa bed is absolutely sufficient for a single person or a child.
The location was perfect for us as we were 116th St within 3 minute walk to the subway station and were able to get off 2 + 3 with the express trains in 10 minutes at the Times Square in the city center.
After a long day in the city we could each just off 116th St. Subway Station in Fine-Far supermarket to do our shopping.
The apartment is located in a side street where it is really nice and quiet evening. We have at any time felt safe in this area of ​​Harlem and enjoyed our stay very much.
Should we visit New York again, Dennis is our first address!
An insider tip:
The best burger during our stay, we were able to take in the Harlem shake just 3 minutes' walk away :-)

This apartment was just amazing und we felt like home all the time. It's located in a pretty quiet area in Harlem with places to shop near by and the subway just right around the corner. Times Square is 10 minutes away using the subway - best location to start an exciting day in the most craziest and most beautiful city ever. I've been to NYC for a couple of times, but never had such a great place to stay.

The flat has a little full stuffed kitchen, a splitted bathroom (toilet separted from shower), a cute little dining area, a sofa, an extremly comfy bed and a huge - really huge :) - TV. Better then any hotel room!

Whenever you get the chance to stay at Dennis' place - go for it. You will not regret it. Dennis, I'm coming back in August/September 2014 - can't wait to stay at your cosy apartment again ... make me a good deal ;)

Oh and while you're there - go and get the best burgers and shakes in town at Harlem Shake! So delicious.

Very Nice studio And Great houst, Dennis. 5 star!!!!! Clean appartment And Cool design. Easy to go downtown with line 2 express. Short way to central park, Guggenheim. Harlem is exotic, Nice people, restaurants, bars And caffis. Will be back!
